The Influence of Attachment Pattern on Developmental Changes in Peer Interaction from the Toddler to the Preschool Period.
Jacobson, Joseph L.; Wille, Diane E.
Child Development, v57 n2 p338-47 Apr 1986
Investigates the influence of infant-mother attachment patterns on the development of peer interaction between the toddler and preschool periods. Notes that, in an initial encounter with an unfamiliar peer, attachment patterns appear to be related more to the child's attractiveness as an interactive partner than to the child's own active interest in engaging in peer interaction.
